What is an optoelectronic device

Optoelectronic devices refer to devices made according to the photoelectric effect called optoelectronic devices, also known as photosensitive devices. There are many types of optoelectronic devices, but their working principle is based on the physics of the photoelectric effect. The main types of optoelectronic devices are: photocells, photomultiplier tubes, photoresistors, photodiodes, phototransistors, photocells, photocouplers. The following describes the structure, working principle, parameters and basic characteristics of these optoelectronic devices.
